We are very excited to launch our first North American facility, outside the USA, in the great province of Ontario, Canada.

Canada is a recognized world leader in privacy legislation so whether your business is targeting the Canadian market or whether you are an international company targeting the US market; Canada is an ideal location for hosting business-critical applications. All of our servers and customers’ data reside in Canada at all times, backed by the full protection of Irish and European Privacy and Data protection.

Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of our first Canadian datacenter in beautiful Toronto!

It's hard to deny that the Canadian startup ecosystem has been booming. There are nearly half a million software developers throughout Canada, and we at DigitalOcean have always felt lots of love from the Canadian developer community. Today we're excited to send some love back their way as we proudly open the doors to our Canadian datacenter, TOR1. Universe, a platform for people to discover and create events based in Toronto, is already a DigitalOcean customer. We are excited to help them expand their business in Canada.

This was a highly requested location. Each hypervisor comes equipped with 40GbE networking and the latest model of SSDs.

Because all of these Droplets will be physically in Canada, if your business needs to keep data in the Great White North, you’ll now be able to do that. DigitalOcean is committed to upholding the highest standards in privacy and security, and TOR1 enables us to extend those protections to our customers’ customers.

To celebrate the TOR1 launch with our friends in Canada, we'll be hosting events throughout October. Save the dates for your cities: Toronto (Oct 13-15), Vancouver (Oct 20-22), and Montreal (Oct 28 — 29). The official event details will be added to this post soon.

Head over to the Droplet create page or use the API to spin up a maple-flavored Droplet in TOR1 today!

Compiling was taking 20 mins on my reasonably fast machine at home and I cut that down to about 5 mins switching to his servers. I ran back to back compiles this weekend and it never missed a beat. Just a note, I didn't rent a beast of a machine, just the $20/mo one. Communication is key and Matt plus his staff are lightning quick with responses.

Support Answers Super Fast (almost under 20 mins) never had downtime never had an issue with network nor hardware, staff is super friendly. I recomend SSD nodes if you are looking for a cuality host and 100% uptime host.

Our LEB servers are based on our extra capacity of newest bare metal, high performance computing (HPC) nodes in Canada. The difference is our HPC nodes get priority support, higher resource priorities, and higher SLA, whereas our LEB servers are more budget friendly. Pricing and availability for new LEB servers may change at any time based on our capacity, after ordering you'll be «locked-in» to the current price for the life of the server.

If you need a larger node (up to 240GB RAM), let us know and we can put together a custom package for you.

No-hassle refunds are provided within 7 days of ordering and are limited to monthly and annual billing cycles only. To qualify, it’s required that the Terms of Service hasn't been breached and no more than 10% of the bandwidth has been used. Refunds aren't available for hourly billing cycles.

Special rules for LEB Servers:
Cannot exceed a load of 1.0 for more than 2 hours per 24 hours period or we may throttle it (HPC Nodes don't have this restriction)
Please be respectful and don't abuse the service
No torrents
No VPN (personal VPN is fine, although you're responsible for the traffic)
